I live in Southern California, and chose Metal Man Restoration in New York instead of local places on the basis of Yelp reviews, and have to confirm them - the results we got were spectacular. We received a brass Stiffel lamp 40 years ago as a wedding gift, and it was a corroded mess by the time I sent the pieces off to Anthony. I'd tried to clean it up, and only made it worse, polishing through the brass to the underlying casting in places. The quoting process was a snap - I took a couple of photos of the pieces, provided approx. diameters and total weight, and got back an estimate that was reasonable. Communication during the refinishing process wasn't so good; I had to e-mail a couple of times to get status, estimated completion dates, and information about the payment process. At the end, I filled out a credit charge authorization form, and got back a charge 20 higher than the estimate and authorized amount (you should clarify whether the estimate includes return shipping; next time I will). The pieces came back, beautifully refinished, polished, and laquered. I reassembled the lamp, and it's back in service, much better than it has been for the past 35 years!

This restoration service is an incredible find. Anthony perfectly renovated our brass coffee table for a very fair price with friendly, professional service. Highly recommend this small business! We also had him replace an antique fish service which is once again beautiful!
Metal Man Restoration just finished replating and lacquering six hairy paw feet from an old Phyfe dining table. The feet that I sent were in miserable condition, particularly the castors. The old brass finish had worn through in many places, revealing the base metal. After Metal Man's work, the feet are absolutely beautiful, probably better than when they were new. The cost was quite reasonable and the work was done in a very timely manner. Even better, the company kept me informed about the process. Having worked with other platers over the years, I can say absolutely that this was the best experience I have ever had with this type of work.
I wanted to restore a pair of radiators in an NYC apt that I bought. Desired to remove the radiator box/cover to create more space and to have beautiful radiators to display. I searched around NYC for restorators but could only find shops that spray coat radiators, which would make them look ordinary. Metal Man was a bit farther away, but restoring radiators the right way is what they do best. (Actually, the delivery cost to move the radiators from my apt and back was only slightly more expensive than a shop in the Bronx. And Manny was very organized, courteous, and the painted radiators came back well wrapped and protected; he moved them right inside my apt). The result was truly transformational, and the color matched my selected Farrow & Ball Off-Black perfectly. Margarita, the paint specialist, was great to work with. The end product exceeded my expectations for a price comparable to the powder spray paint guys.
Excellant place to do business with. Great craftsmanship. Strongly recommend this business
